Still, as you can see above – the overall plot of power between the three units is almost identical. However, in the first 5 or so minutes, the Gravat does seem to read a little bit lower than the others before stabilizing: Whilst the Garmin does perform better in some circumstances with a brighter light and longer battery life, it’s the Magene that gives you a few nice extras namely; a more responsive braking mode, a customisable mode and a USB-C charge port. But what about accuracy compared to other power meters? After all, it can be as smooth as it wants, but if it’s not actually accurate, it doesn’t mean much. Here’s the data files from that:

The light/flash is less bright than Varia RTL515. You can now set higher brightness in exchange for shorter battery life. It’s hard to definitely say that there were no false negatives as Magene does not claim to detect slowly closing cars (like Garmin).

Those two apps basically cover the vast majority of ways trainers can connect to apps. In my case, I did a blend of both ANT+ & Bluetooth Smart connections. Some days I rode Zwift via ANT+ on a Windows PC, and other days I did so via Bluetooth Smart on an iPad. And with TrainerRoad the same. In general – the trainer should always be the lowest value, and the power meter closest to your foot should be the highest value (in this case, Vector 3 pedals, then almost indistinguishable below that, the Shimano crank-based unit). Obviously, once you’re within the 1-2% range of each other, you’re likely within the realm of their stated accuracy claims, but just as general overview of where things should stand. This is a fairly smooth job – and most (all?) of the tiny variances you see are more a result of me faulting than it. a b "1999 FIA 2-Litre World Cup for Manufacturers – Final classification".

I’m sure there would (like comparing any two trainers) be some specific edge case that you’d notice one more than the other. But road-feel wasn’t really an issue on the Gravat2 trainer, all good there.Renault Megane - Interview: François Leboine, responsable design concept-cars chez Renault - LIGNES/Auto". lignesauto.fr. 11 February 2021 .

For me, in my testing, I used Zwift and TrainerRoad as my two main apps (which are the two main apps I use personally). In the case of Zwift, I used it in regular riding mode (non-workout mode), whereas in the case of TrainerRoad I used it in a structured workout mode. I dig into the nuances of these both within the power accuracy section. Here you can see TrainerRoad paired as an ANT+ FE-C trainer: And one last time, here’s said trainer in both Zwift and TrainerRoad, this time on my iPad via Bluetooth Smart FTMS. In 2021, Renault revealed a battery electric version known as the Megane E-Tech Electric, which takes on a crossover exterior design.
